Abstract

The formation kinetics of BaTiO3 from the solid-state BaCO3 and TiO2 powder in a microwave field was investigated. The quantitative XRD analysis and the model considered the volume change between reactant and product were used in this experiment. Results show that the formation rate of BaTiO3 in a microwave field is much faster than upon conventional heating. The activation energy of the solid state reaction for BaTiO3 was measured as 58 kJ/mol. This indicates the enhancement of diffusion by the microwave heating process.
